Wisconsin Legislature calls for immediate resolution of the U.S.-China trade war to protect the state's farmers and agricultural industry

Criticizes the Trump Administration's $20 billion currency swap bailout to Argentina, which enabled Argentina to waive tariffs on agricultural exports including soybeans

Wisconsin's 16,000 soybean farmers are harmed by the trade war, as China—the world's leading soybean consumer—has committed to purchasing soybeans from Argentina instead of Wisconsin

Wisconsin soybean production represented a $1.3 billion industry in 2024

Resolution is non-binding and expresses the legislature's position that federal trade policy is prioritizing foreign nations over American farmers
